    Marilyn was UNDER RATED!!!!

    I've nothing  to add. I think the title of the post say's it all. I just hated looking and the "Marilyn was over rated" post title every time I looked at the message board!

    No matter who replaces her ultimately .. they will never BE Marylin. She is/was one of a kind.

    Marilyn made it all look so easy.  It can't be easy hosting a live show but she did it and she did it exceptionally well.  No one can replace Marilyn.  Marilyn was CityLine and CityLine was Marilyn.  They can do a similar show but it won't be the same.  Right now they need to pick a host, whoever that may be, let the chips fall where they may and stop jerking us around.

    it's funny really .. how on her final show Marilyn showed highlites from her early years and how different they were (not just due to plastic surgery!!) she was green, she was a bit nervous or tight compared to the veteran broadcaster we saw say farewell.

     

    the sad part is that I used to watch all the time, I used to PVR it....now it is right out of BT, which I typically watch (love kevin, love love love kevin) and I turn the channel. it's not that I don't like tracy or the others who are parading through -- au contraire -- I just don't care to know what they share. it's not bad, it's not good, it's just not relevant. what made MD so great is that she asked MY questions. she wanted to know what I wanted to know and when something sounded like BS she would call the guest out on it and get to the truth of things whether it be food, crafts, fashion or some gadet that was going to be sold. I liked that when she put blue cheese into her mouth she didn't pretend to like it ... she said it was like "old socks" and almost spat it out.

    non of the current "guest hosts" have the guts to be that real. Kathryn Humphries and MAYBE Jody Vance would have but the others seem to just want to pose and come across as pretty or whatever. WE DON'T WANT PRETTY we want SMART....we want GUTSY.

     

    We miss MD and those who are the front runners are not even close to what the show needs.

     

    there. I feel better.

    hello all,

     I agree that she was awesome and I miss her too! I guess we as humans; do not deal with change so very well----but why must we do it so often?!

     I hope the new person can grow into the role and some of us may even learn to like them just as much as Marilyn. But who knows how long that may take!

     

    always in style.....south sea pearl
